[Yeetyaah]

Crusaders ruthless on defence.

As I said last week. Landers to score the last try to win by a point in overtime.

[Bones]

Yeah Frizzel just isn't as good as his potential was.

[Tim]

Frizzell must be a thick fluffybunny.

[Tim]

Thompson may peak later in the season, but carrying extra weight isn't working for him so far.

[Bones]

@Tim yeah he was coming from the crusaders side. Super dumb.

[Kruse]

I've only tuned in for the last 5 minutes, but jesus the Dockers seem to be playing entertaining/high-risk/just-for-the-fun-of-it rugby. Who's the skills coach? Are they just training with random offload and balls from nowhere?

[Machpants]

Cameron joins bridge as butter fingered fluffybunny wasting a try

[KiwiMurph]

I'm continually amazed by Cameron's ability to look poor coming off the bench for the dominant side.

[KiwiMurph]

Vintage Collins.

What is par?

A 20 point margin?

I hope you put money on that.

[antipodean]

Who is worse: Jordan or Collins?

[Yeetyaah]

Thank Christ I'm not a Highlanders fan.

[Tim]

@KiwiMurph He really is rubbish.

[Bones]

Fucken blues players fucking up my tips again.

[sparky]

All over. 33-13 to the Crusaders.

Pick of the players were David Havili and Cullen Grace.

What’s the crowd number? Looks pretty full which is nice to see.

15k announced at the end of the game. Beautiful day for it, and a pretty good crowd atmosphere.

Walking hm from game. Initial thoughts. Highlanders have no firepower or ability to beat players one-on-one without naholo smith etc. live A Smith was best player on park. Crusaders great at breakdown, strong n slowed ball down well. Had good variations on attack and hard to read. Thought again Grace made influential plays at crucial times, good prospect.

[Bones]

@98blueandgold well yeah the most influential back outside Smith has been sitting on the frikken bench. Nareki is better than Naholo was in the end though, already dangerous and hugely promising, just had no chance with the shit being served up to him tonight.

If Ioane doesn't get a chance at ten next game with Walden starting I'm going to scream.
